Viola! you're good to go.

Brief Analysis of the Entries:

@iamthegray spoke to the theme of the contest and followed the rules

@iamatabo spoke to the theme of the contest but did not follow one of the rules which is to follow @evashinen.

@ashley4u followed the rules but didn't speak to the theme of the contest.

@loladelolz didn't speak to the theme of the contest.

The entries of @iamthegray and @iamatabo were readily up for consideration since they both addressed the theme.

@iamthegray emerged as 1st since he spoke to the theme and followed the rules. He has since been gifted with 2 SBD.

It was at the point of transferring 1 SBD to @iamatabo that it was discovered @iamatabo isn't following @evashinen.

So you see, when it comes to participating in contests, having a rich content is as important as following the rules and following the rules is as important as having a rich content. The same principle applies in real life.

Thank you all for your participation.
Let as Press for Progress towards gender parity.

P.S: In addition to your knowledge, play by the rules. These 2 will guarantee success.
